They both look beautiful! My Liberty is doing quite well this year too, other than the fact that it was being attacked by slugs or bugs or somethign.....but now that I've put a stop to that, its looking pretty good. I only have 2-3 leaves that are damaged, otherwise it's doing its thing. It's def. t...

I hope no one got hit too hard or had too much frost damage overnight :( We woke up to a little bit of a frost this morning, but I was able to get out yesterday and cover almost everything up. Got my hostas and some of the new plants covered up good, everthing else can stand up to the weather. Im ho...

It didn't get down to freezing last night...but just by a degree or two. And that was not the forcast. It was supposed to stay in the low 40's, but got colder than expected I think. If the forcast is similar my lawn will look a lot like that tonight. We sure learned a good lesson last year with the ...

Thanks for the info and the heads up! We just barely missed the frost this morn...it was 33 degrees and it must have rained some through the night, everything was pretty moist this morning. I'll have to check the forcast this afternoon to see if we will get close again tonight or not. Good luck keep...

Its a beautiful fern, and in a very pretty spot too. I've not had much luck with ferns myself. I bought several Japanese painted ferns last summer and they've yet to show back up. Wonder if the rock method works for most other ferns too? I love the way they look in the garden. (with the exception of...

Last year was the first year of my 'hosta craze'. Since I was new to acquiring them, I dont have that many varieties, and was very excited to see them get a second year under their belt this summer. I lost 4-5, and a few that were small last year, but look like they may be even smaller. Im probably ...

That looks beautiful! 8-) Francee holds a very special place in my heart...it's the hosta that got me 'hooked'! I have two that flank the front entrance and are about 4 years old this summer....they were awesome last year. I am expecting great things out of them this year too. They've gotten really ...

Comments about Dianthus Firewitch Pinks?
I saw this at a local grower today while out 'scouting' for who has what, etc. Its gorgeous and I would love to put it in our front flower beds..they get direct hot hot sun from about 11:00 am on. And it sounds like this would love those conditions. Anyone have any experience growing this? The growe...
